One of his best novels is the classic dark fantasy Our Lady of Darkness (1978 winner of the World Fantasy Award.Our Lady of Darkness introduces San Francisco horror writer Franz Westen. While studying his beloved city through binoculars from his apartment window, he is astonished to see a mysterious figure waving at him from a hilltop two miles away.
